He is one of the finest actors in Tamil cinema.
I always wonder why the finest actors have mostly been used as Villains in Tamil cinema?

Think from MR Radha, Nambiyar, Ashokan, R S Manohar, Raghuvaran, Nasser, Prakashraj, Pasupathy. ( i must have missed some prominent names ) and the list goes on and will.

A small (but huge) correction Vaani. His age is not 60. He's just 50.

Of course it is. But i can say sure tamil heroes at the corresponding times were not upto the mark these villains did. But who got fame at the end? Only heros heroes heroes.

I see manirathnam as an exception in using them to give great movies like Anjali, Iruvar, etc.,

VILLIANS get their fair share of salary and market rate in film industrys...they have fans too...but still i think that, educated ppl knows tt villians are actually normal ppl in real life and not as bad as their roles...but in village areas, these people consider them villian in reel and real life....

End of the day actor are just actors..have you gained or learned anything from him?? Indicate one please??
Talk about our "Freedom Patriots".. your mouth and tounge will be blessed.
 
Remember.. you and me got this Civil Right, from the real.. real blood shed of our patriotic fellow men. Remember. "Jallianwala Bagh" Massacre. We stood up, losing all these innocent lives. Else, we would have still been a "Cockroach" ... right Gowri...
 
Read history..ada vitutu..Raghu oru manusana and being a celebrity.  avar family-ku condolence solaradhu right but, hate admiring them. What makes you say he's great actor... voice modulation... pesimistic & negative roles.. you and me can do it..  Many does everyday.. they aren't exposed in media.. you and me are doing that in our walks of life.
 
You haven't talked about the demise of our recent great writer "Sujatha", he shared his great knowledge with us all..

Celebrity WANTS everything.

Dont think that everything we do in internet/mail is our real life.
Tamil group ku mail pani pesuna than nan avangala respect panaratha arthama Mr felix.
This is called "Kinatru Thavalai". ( i got the reason to call you as Frog from the start. But you did not have the reason before i replied to this Raghuvaran mail.)

I'm sorry for the following example. But just to explain the truth. If any of your close relatives die, do you write and express sorrow in this community? Not at all. That is personal. So it doesnt mean you did not respect that person.
.
Sujatha is someone i really respect, someone i wondered, someone i always wanted to follow. You never can know his loss is so much personal to me and i dont need to write about that in this community.

And i've found you just always want to criticize me in whatever replies i do in this community. That is truly annoying. It doesnt matter who won the conversation/debate. It is the manner we handle the fellow group members.

I do know you'll reply to this mail with all the guns firing targeting at me to start a fresh fight.

But if it is anything about degrading my attachment with Sujatha and thats it. Thats the end of your saga. I am Marking you as Spam and you never enters my Mailbox at all. If it happens, Good Bye Felix. Otherwise i do wanna be friends to anyone.

Cool... Gowri... take a break....
Thanks for marking me SPAM.
Only Cockroach does this job and you are proving yourself that you are ...:-)
 
I do know that you will see this reply...please be advised, I never have the intention to criticize your views.
It just comes.. You make take in this way.. you are only person who WRITE some real good stuffs that stikes you.
 
Keep up the good work never bother about comments and criticisms.. If our Father Of Our Nation Mr.Mahatma Gandhi would have thought this.. we would  have not got our freedom. If our Prime Minister would have concerned about criticisms he cannot be a good leader...
 
Don't apprehend yourself....keep going..
 
Take Care.. Gowri..
